Local couriers quoted £180 and £160 plus VAT for this job. I was reluctant to use one of the big national carriers as the painting was extreemly fragile and needed very careful handling. Thanks to uShip I was able to find a specialist art/antique carrier to do the job for £74 including VAT and insurance. The painting arrived at its destination safely within 24 hours of collection. I would use uShi ...

I won an ebay iteam but was to far for me to pick and need some one pick iteam and bring to me as the iteam and shipment of it was cheaper than buying on local. so was great to have someone so helpful to bring iteam.

The Cabinet was large and heavy. It was picked up when asked and delivered the next day in perfect condition. I'd work with them again

Excellent service. A really good idea. Enables purchase/delivery of items that before would not of been possible. Would recommend to anyone, and much better than competitor services that are currently available. Liam

Quite challenging really to get a courier willing to deliver. This was our 3rd attempt to get a Rayburn to our house after the first courier just didn't correspond so we had to cancel. 2nd seemed completely unaware of the type of oven and came very unprepared so after waiting for him to resolve (which never happened) we readvertised and OMcarriers bid and we found them absolutely great. I guess it ...

Dave picked up a wardobe in Ipswich and delivered to Reading on time and in perfect condition. Great communication throughout, a very good value for money service. Thank you.

We bought a medium size antique leather chair from an auction house in Scotland and needed to get it to our home in Hampshire. We chose UShip because it is a similarly run site to Ebay so it is easy to use and the feedback on the bidders is very helpful to us when we made our choice. The shipping costs thro UShip are very reasonable compared with some estimates from other companies which we ...

Speedcat: done such a gr8 job will book him for future work, and i was very pleased. yes i suggest uship to any1 that wants to listen, when i tell them about ...

Used uship for the first time the other day after winning some antique doors on ebay. Found the service to be excellent and very easy to use. Resulted in a successful shipment at a very good price, in fact I couldn't have done it for less myself taking only the cost of fuel into account. My service provider - viper294 - was excellent with all aspects of the shipment from communication to packag ...

Very Quickly, Sold large item on Ebay, agreed with buyer to find courier to take it to London, broused the internet, looked at uShip, looked easy enough to operate. Got a few bids in quicky, accepted one and as the saying goes "Bob's your uncle" It is an easy enough system to work and will use it again.

I had to two antique armchairs collected from two different cities in France. Delivered to London with no problems at all.

I buy furniture on eBay and up until recently I picked up items myself. 3 weeks ago I bought a pair of lovely solid wood Oriental wardrobes with matching side tables. Unfortunately the items were located in Stirling which is 400 miles away from my place. After a long and painful search I found uShip through Google search engine. The site is very user friendly, there is no pre-pay. I got several bi ...

I had A new Bed that I wanted to move to my Caravan in Cumbria but was not sure of the best way to get this done at a reasonable price. I went on the internet and came up with UShip. The instructions were very clear and I soon had a very good bid from RaymondMathieson. Raymond and his team arrived on time and soon loaded the bed on to his van and set of. I had to be at the Caravan when Raymond a ...

i have never used this service before but (& I know people say it, but I really mean it) it was so easy & simple to Ioad details, receive bids, accept bid & have the item delivered. I was worried how I was going to collect the item but this made it all so simple & easy. Thank you for a great service.

UShip was recommended by some friends, jumped online and within minuets had stuff set up and soon after started to get bids in for my shipment. a week later, product delivered. no hassles, no worries. The iphone app does not work too great though.

Friendly duo that arrived dot on time. Nothing was too much trouble for them despite their early start. My washing machine arrived safe and sound. Would recommend to others and use again. Thanks guys :-) Uship is the way to go. Easy to use site (unlike some others!) Received quotes fast. Choice of delivery options. Am just about to put another job someones way-it's great.... Ideal for ebay pur ...

It's a generally good experience but look out for cowboys with low bids and no feedback bidding for your work.

Gives me the opportunity to get diverse quotes. The feedback is very helpful as well,enables one to evaluate the provider.

The company were helpful in every way. keeping us infomred and very helpful when timing of receipt of goods was an issue. It was a good experience in a world where you find a great lack in care and attention. so we want to congratulate you on this amazing service. thank you

This is the first time I have used U ship. I think it is an excellent idea to help shippers and mover find each other and to bid on the job. However I found scheduling pick up and delivery a nightmare and wasted hours and hours on this due to Uships policy of not letting customers talk to shippers. To me pick up and deliver times are as important as shipping price. I think either the website needs ...

Uship is a great service it allowed me to save lots of money compared to the offers i received from standard couriers. The guy offered me a good service but the way he presented himself wasn't that great. Very old van in a very bad shape. The van broke down in France and he lost 1 week to make it fixed and delivery arrived 1 week late. Overall satisfaction is good anyway. cheers

They collected my sofa from teh shop and brought it to my door without me even being there. Very quick and efficient.

OM carriers did a very good job of delivering a large wooden desk from Edinburgh to Ayrshire. I was also pleased that they take sustainability into account in how they run their business.

I won a large bookcase in a web-auction on Sunday, and thanks to uship and the service received from one of their providers, I was able to have it delivered to me the next day, and it only cost me a few poinds more than if I had collected it myself. When considering the time I save myself as well - 5 hours of my life - a real bargain.

We bought a sofa bed on ebay and needed to pick it up. We were told about uship and signed up. We received a bid very quickly at a very reasonable price and agreed it. The service provider then picked up and delivered the sofa within 12 hours of arranging a suitable time for pick up. Very impressed and would use the service again.

I shipped an antique piece of furniture that belonged to my Great Gran and a box of crockery that was special to my Grandparents. Both items are of great sentimental value. Bickie tookgreat care of the items - both arrived in perfect condition. I saw how the items were secured in the van and was extremely impressed. I would use Bickie again in a flash!

I am happy with u ship, I will use them again in the future. It was simple and the bidding system is ideal.

Very pleased with the service of team of 3 who pick-ed up and hand delivered a bath - even placing it in the room where it will be fitted! Most delivery guys just do a kerb-side dumping - whatever the weather. Great price deal too! Would rather use u-ship than any other shipping/courier service.

I purchased a bike 130 miles from where I live and thought I was going to have to rent a van, drive there and pick it up. I was put in contact with biketrans through Uship where they offered the complete collection and delivery service for 65 quid. I could not be happier with the service after biketrans took over. My bike was picked up and delivered at pretty much the exact time quoted, in perfect ...

We needed to get a sofa from Peterborough to West Sussex quickly and cheaply. I reckon Uship saved us at least half of normal courier costs. All the quotes received were in good order and I had a lot of confidence in getting a reliable company to transport the goods. I am really happy with Uship and will not only use you again but will recommend the site to others. I was especially confident becau ...

Uship is great way to get competitive quotes for transporting items. I was happy with the process and found the transporters prepared to be very flexible on pickup and delivery arrangements

Saved £30 on the shipment. Website is great to use and harvested several offers quickly. About time the shipping world had a service like this.

Very efficient service, exactly as promised. Peter phoned a couple of times to let me know exactly what was going on. No complaints at all.

First time I've used Uship and would recommend it to anyone. It worked very well for us when we needed to get 3 heavy rolls of material and some accessories across the country at fairly short notice.

Very pleased, have nothing negative to report. I got a reply within 10 min after I put my request out!

My mother recently left hospital in Cumbria following a stroke and moved to a Nursing home in Greater Manchester to be nearer me. The wheelchair she now needs was only delivered to the hospital after she had been discharged. One large courier firm went to collect it but refused the collection as the wheelchair was not boxed! I found this website via a search engine.The uShip website is easy to use ...

I was shipping my bike due to a change of job location at short notice.I had previously had it booked for delivery through another delivery company which let me down badly, this left me in a tight spot and this guy came through. I would and will be recommending this service for the future.

Easy, easy, easy, what more can I say, takes the hassle out of ringing ten companies for a quote yourself!

Antique bed shipped from Essex to Inverness. Arrived well looked after with very friendly service. Definitely would recommend.

Very positive. An excellent way to get goods transported across the country when you do not know any courier services. The customer feedback is invaluable.

Uship.com is the top of the top for shipping rates. I mean, I found no better rates anywhere else online. This venue should be listed in Forbes, as a top 100 company in my opinion. I will never use any other method for shipping again. Great service, and very easy to use. Thank you uship.com, will recommend you to all my business partners. Mamhood Sameah, Cairo Leather, LTD

The wardrobe was much larger than myself, or Heather and Michael (the couriers) anticipated! After a battle to try to get it upstairs, Heather and Michael exceeded all levels of customer service, by actually taking the wardrobe apart, taking it upstairs, and then assembling it again for me! All I can say is there are not many honest, genuine people like them around anymore, that are prepared to h ...

Excellent service. Everything worked very well, from obtaining the bids through to the delivery taking place. I shipped a large fridge freezer from Manchester to Essex, using the courier mattsellers. He was extremely friendly and helpful, right down to taking extra care loading the item into my house. Nothing seemed a bother even though it was a large and cumbersome appliance. The price I ...

I needed my kingsize bed and mattress in Norfolk. The only problem was that I had it stored in a container in Sussex. Most removal companies wanted around £200 for moving it and I figured that to hire a van myself would cost approx £160 including petrol. If I couldn't find a lower price then I would have had to dump the bed as it wouldn't have been viable to pay such a high price. Then I searched ...

7 Doors from Bristol to Plymouth ebay Purchase Good experience of using the site. Not sure how much I saved using uShip, but I was happy with the amount charged. ( Though you uShip seem to take a high commission 20 % approx for providing just the websit network ) The delivery by ' goldwing1969 ' a 2 man team was successfully & professionally completed within 3 days. I would use ...

Firstly, after using a competitor website to uship last week, I would definitely recommend uship over them. This is an excellent website and I will certainly use again, and recommend to friends and family. The courier I used was very good - competitive price, good communication, friendly and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again. He was particularly careful with our oven which he ...

Was sceptical at first about using this service but got a number of bids on here and looking at the feedback I chose to go with....the most expensive bidder. Saying that, their feedback was good and how anybody could earn anything charging any less was beyond me. It took the 2 guys about 5 hours to pack and move the furniture so considering that's only £20 each an hour including the diesel and ...

I was given numerous quotes that were extremely expensive in London, I came across u ship by googling man and van. This was my first try and I was amazed at how user friendly it was, I got some great quotes and newcourier which i used was excellent, he even collected another item from another place as well for an extra £10, I will use them all the time from now on

I would just like to add that Paul was very good he kept us updated all the way through the day the service we recieved was of the highest standard I would recomend him to any body

Needed a new futon mattress which was someone elses excess - so with the aid of Uship was able to solve 2peoples problems with the help of competitive service providers!
